I have not tried cortisone. Also, I did not consult with a dermatologist - I took Benadryl and Famotidine that ER dr prescribed. Since then I have written to the dermatologist who suggested that I could use topical Benadryl cream, work on moisturizing preventatively, be seen, etc. So I am thinking of trying Tegretol again armed with those tools and knowledge.
